Verdict

Another tough race to call here for punters with very few runners in form but the principals look to be Fast Freddie, Trinculo Elusive Warrior and the vote is given to Fast Freddie. The selection has won his last two races in good style and beat Stormburst with a little in hand last time out, granted he is rising in the weights but he again has conditions and he is taken to defy the handicapper. Trinculo rates the main danger as he ran as if returning to form when second behind the selection but although he is better off at the weights he still has a little to find. Elusive Warrior is another that could go well on his best form but he disappointed for no apparent reason last time out so he can not be put forward with much confidence. Grand Palace is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he now looks weighted up to his best. Of the remainder Obe One is handily weighted and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to the progressive Fast Freddie.
